Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Apr. 22, i913.

To all whom 'it may concern Be it known theta I, .Honor @ser donosti, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of the city of Seattle, in the county of King and State of VVashlngton,l

have inventedeertain new and useful linprovements in Liquid Fuel Burners, of which the following is a specification.

My invention pertains to an improved burner of the above type embodyirug,r certain novel provisions for atomizing the fuel and revulating combustion.

he invention'resides in the novel features combinations of parts as set forth in the following descri tion end succinctly delined in my annexe claims.

With reference to the accompanying drawing wherein similar reference characters designate corresponding ports throughout the several views: Figure 1 is a' sectional side elevation of e burner embodying the features of my invention in such form as now preferred by me. Fig. 2 is e frag mentary section ofv the same extending through the atoniizer and one of the injeotors. Fig. 3 is e` fragmentary section of the otomizer, and Fig. 4 is a section 0n line t-4 of Fig. 3.

My improved burner comprises main. and euxiliary injectors, as l and 2, and un atomizer embodying a tubular casing E3 having parallel passages 3 extending at opposite sides of a spiral partition and communicating with a burner tip 4 connected with the casing. Each convolution of partition 3 is provided with by-passcs or openings, as 31, which are combined with delectors or lips, as 32, conveniently provided by bending the forward wall of eachV opening 3l laterally, and rearwardly with respectto tip 4r. into the adjacent passage 3.

injector 1, as shown, comprises a shell 5, formed integral with easing 3, end e` nozzle G having a daring discharge termination 6 projecting overan inhalte port 5 in the side ot the shell, while infector 2 comprises e shell 7, east on chem er or valve body l0, and a nozzle 8 seated in an internal flan e of shell Z and projecting over a side port which communicates with en angular intake 12 cast on chamber l() connected with n valve 12 through which the liquid tuel is admitted to the burner from source of supply, not shown.

i wardly toward end Chamber i0, which is formed with an in 55 tolte 13 for steam, or other heated duid under pressure is provided with delivery. ports 2', l communicating, respectively with shell T and with a. nipple l0 cast on the chamber and connected, by n pipe 14 which is screwed into shell 5 and engages nozzle 6 to hold a shoulder 6 there of against an internal flange of the shell. In this connection it will be observed that shell 5 is provided with a side intake communicating with port 5 and having screw-thraded connection with a pipe-15A which is connected, by means of a union l5', with the deliver end of shell 7,whereby the liquid fuel adi rected to shell 5 passages 3 to the burner tip.

' s' illustrated in the drawing, chamber 10 is equipped with independent ineens for closing the ports l', 2 in the form of needle 75 valves l1, 20 which huve screw-threz1ded connection wlth stuthng boxes ll", 20 on the chamber and are secured-to hand wheels 1, s.

Should it be desired to partlyivaporize or raise the temperature of the liquid fuel flowing into shell 7 before it is brought under the influence ot the luid discharging from nozzle 6, valve 2O is opened for delivery of steam through nozzle observed that in operating the burner with( valve 20 alone opened, and Valve l2 adjusted accordingly, that n comparatively small tire can be maintained.

Steam discharging from the flared mouth of nozzle 6, catches the product ldrown in through side port 5 and forces the same against partition 30, which through the provision of lips 82 and lay-posses 3l elects e thorough intermingling of the oil and steam. .95

Having thus described my invention, what ll claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States of America, is:

l. A. liquid fuel valve body provided with n chamber provided with an intake port, moin and aux .iliary delivery ports in the side wall of said body, one end portion of said bodyT being provided with an angular ing across the end of the c and having one end portion amber thereof extending indisposed forwardly of means of a union lei with 60 nitted to shell f7 `is di- 70 for delivery through the 8. Further, it willv be 85 burner' comprising a 100 assage extendsaid auxiliary port, a shell communicating with said auxiliary port and project-ing laterally from said body and having an intake port communicating With the angular passa e of the latter, a second shell, a tip on sald second shell, a delivery conduit leading from said main port to said second shell, and a second delivery conduit leading from said first shell to said second shell.

'2. A burner comprising a valve body having main and auxiliary delivery ports, valves for said ports, a nozzle connected with said auxiliary port, a shell inclosingv said nozzle and provided in its side Wall with an intake port, a second shell having side and end intake ports and an internal lshoulder, a nozzle in said second shell hav- V nozzle seated, said last named nozzle ex-v Aing an external flange seated against the.

shoulder thereof, a pipe forming a conduit connected with the sald main delivery port andv threaded in the end intake port of said second shell and holding said last named tending over the side inlet port of said second shell, and vmeans connecting the side intake ort of said second shell with said first s ell. y

3. In a liquid fuel burner, a shell having kiside and end inlet ports, a tubular casing fixed to said shell in line With the end inlet thereof, a nozzle communicating with the end inlet port of said shell and having itsdelivery end projecting inwardly over the side inlet port thereof, said nozzle having flared intale and delivery end portions.'

4. In a liquid fuel burner, an atomizer comprising a casing, a spiral partition in said casing, means for directing liquid fuel in one end portion of said easing, said parsaid casing, means for directing liquid fuel in one end portion of said casing, said partition being formed in its edge portion With notches constituting passage-ways, deiiecting shoulders on the partition forwardly ofthe notches thereof for directing the fuel through the latter, and a tip on the opposite end portion of said casing.
